Overview

Midas is pioneering the future of asset tokenization by offering exposure to institutional-grade securities and structured products onchain - accessible, global, and compliant. Co-founded by former investment professional Dennis Dinkelmeyer and seasoned serial entrepreneur Fabrice Grinda, Midas aims to bridge the gap between traditional and decentralized finance.

Since launching in October 2024, Midas has grown to over $1b in total value locked (TVL) across its range of investment products, reflecting strong market fit and demand. The company raised a $9m seed round from top-tier investors including BlockTower, Framework Ventures, and Coinbase Ventures and others – now Midas is looking for outstanding talents to scale and execute on its vision of a more open and efficient financial system.
